Whipple Super High Density Intercooler 1" to 1" Whipple Block (20202022 Shelby GT500 / 20232026 Raptor R) 5000188-01
High-Capacity Intercooler Upgrade for 5.2L Whipple Supercharger Systems
The Whipple Super High Density (SHD) Intercooler Core is a direct replacement upgrade engineered to dramatically improve cooling efficiency on 20202022 Shelby GT500 and 20232026 Ford Raptor R supercharged 5.2L platforms. Designed to drop directly into the factory Whipple block, this intercooler increases heat transfer capacity without requiring cutting, grinding, or porting.
Compared to the factory core, the SHD intercooler features a wider 163mm core versus the stock 148mm, providing a 10% increase in usable surface area. It also utilizes 33% larger inlet and outlet water passages, significantly improving coolant flow and reducing pressure drop under high-load and high-boost conditions where the stock system can quickly reach its limits.
Whipples super high density offset fin design further increases thermal efficiency by packing more cooling surface into the same physical space. Combined with a billet inlet/outlet tank and a billet flange for added strength, this intercooler delivers race-proven cooling performance while retaining full compatibility with the stock supercharger assembly. For those pushing airflow even further, the system is also compatible with an optional billet intercooler manifold for increased flow capacity.
